Porcupine Tree in India!!!!

One of the best bits of news I've heard in recent times (apart from Tarantino announcing Kill Bill Vol 3 for 2014), Porcupine Tree, the experimental/progressive/psychedelic/acoustic/indy/opera rock/concept band, is coming to India!!

They will be performing in Mumbai this December, and will be promoting their latest album The Incident. Although I'm pretty sure they will play some of their classics.

So I'm definitely going. Tickets havent been out yet, but will be out soon.

Cheers!

How very disappointing, I was expecting a horticultural delight!

That would be a very interesting show. I like the new album. These guys are one of the very few current progressive bands I listen to.

Even I thought it was a tree that had not been seen in India for many decades and was now suddenly discovered in some remote corner of some jungle, how disappointing

OK. I totally understand the disappointment, so on, thinking about it, the horticulture delight element would have been great par se.

Still, the band is superb, thats my point. Its difficult to find experimental and innovative such as Porcupine Tree these days. Bangaloreites, give it a shot. You would love it. They are great performers.

Off topic: You guys are actually aging. (*winks*)

Porcupine Tree Ticket, got an extra one here

By mistake I made the payment twice, meaning I now have an extra ticket with me.
If anyone's interested, please contact me ASAP.
phone number 9711199747.
Well since I paid as a college student, I will be able to sell it only to a college student(any college in India)
cost is 720 INR.

Regards,
Abhishek Kaushik
IIT Delhi.

P.S.- No this is not any kind of black sale for the purpose of profit. I am charging you exactly what the bank, paypal and U.S. government charged me in total. I have even got the required permission to authorize anyone interested to allot the ticket
